129 Reflections of the Wu family

In the Wu family's house in the city, Wu Futian, the general judge of Chuncheng, looked at Hou Jinning with some embarrassment, "Lord Hou, it's not a matter for us to hide like this, the second young man of the Feng family is not a good one, he has been here for seven or eight days, and we haven't faced each other, do you say it's okay?" ”

The other, Ma Xun, also sat there with a blank face, listening to the conversation between the two with his ears pricked up.

"Lord Wu, aren't you a general judge? The so-called general judgment is to divide the grain, salt, and catch. Our Chuncheng is implementing rice planting, and we are in a hurry, and we have a few brothers, but we are running around to carry out the instructions of the prince. ”

"But it's not a way to drag on like this, I'm afraid that Lord Feng will find fault," Wu Futian said.

"Afraid of what? We went to the restaurant every day, and we didn't delay our business, but we just didn't run into him. Besides, since we haven't met Feng Er, we have naturally not seen the documents in office, so those who don't know are not to blame. Besides, I guess he is only temporarily acting as prefect. I heard my father say that someone will soon come over to fill the vacancy, and they will not be arrogant for much time. ”

"The farmers who had cleared the land came to do the deed...... I heard that a lot of people have already been done in other towns, so I am afraid that I dare not delay this matter", Wu Futian continued to scratch his head.

"Ma Xun, you went back to do it", Hou Jinning instructed: "When you see the surname Feng, you know what to say, right?" ”

"Yes, my lord," replied Ma Xun with a wooden face.

"Also, the road in front of our Houfu Zhuangzi is in disrepair, dig it up, find someone to rebuild it, as for how long it will be repaired and how to repair it, you know." Hou Jinning said.

Hearing this, Wu Tucheng, who had not spoken, his eyes lit up: "Good idea, my Wu family also has to tidy up the fields and roads, and all the roads around the Wu family's fields are dug up."

Ma Xun did not speak, and his eyes flashed for a moment.

The roads under the city of Chuncheng are mostly dirt roads, the two largest roads, one passes by the head of the Wu family, and the other passes by the head of the Hou family, the two have a wide land area, if they are dug up, I am afraid that the ox cart will be greatly affected every day in and out of the field, and the progress is .......

Sure enough, the measurement and scheming of the literati can always make people chill.

……

In the Chuncheng Mansion, Feng Chenhao sat on the chair with Erlang's legs crossed, with a sneer in his eyes.

After coming for more than seven days, I haven't seen a single one of the people in the yamen who hold important positions. Every day, the servants would tell him that the Tongzhi and the Tongju had left the city.

"Huh! Hide from me?! Feng Chenhao didn't have any emotion on his face, but went to the workshop where he was in charge of the judgment, and asked about the basic situation of agriculture and water conservancy.

"I'm sorry, Lord Feng, what you asked, Xia Guan really doesn't know very well." The warden surnamed Song said with a shy face.

The others lowered their heads, not daring to look at Feng Chenhao's face.

Feng Chenhao slapped his slap on the desk, and in the middle of the silent lobby, there was a "snap" sound, and the hearts of the officials present trembled.

"As a warden, you are in charge of the collection, opening, and storage of the Yamen case, but you don't know how many people I have in the spring of agriculture, how many cattle are cultivated, and how many villages are in my Spring City?" Feng Chenhao asked.

"These data, these data ......", the cold sweat on the forehead of the warden came out: "Hui Yu Feng, these data are in the hands of Lord Tongzhihou and Lord Wu, although the lower officials take the documents, but they never dare to check it privately" The Song warden gritted his teeth and stiffened, using this reason to prevaricate.

"Okay, then you take out all the paperwork and show it to me", Feng Chenhao pulled the corners of his mouth, revealing a smiling look.

Song Dian's subconscious wanted to refuse.

"Song Dian, you can think about it, although this official is new to the city, you can go out and inquire about the official's temper!"

"Yes, yes", Song Dian's official was sweating, trembling, took out the key to the warehouse, took out the paperwork, and handed it to Feng Chenhao.

"Your Excellency, your ...... Xiaguan's mother was critically ill, and Xiaguan ...... Xia Guan needs to ask for leave to go home in the afternoon", Song Dianguan said tremblingly, the paperwork is out, and when the two notices and the general judge come back, he will have no good fruit to eat.

"Yo, this is sick? Okay, let's go", Feng Chenhao squinted his eyes: "Who else are you, if someone in the family is sick, go together"

The rest of the officers were a little sweaty on their foreheads: "Don't dare, don't dare." ”

"Transfer all the things that Hou Tongzhi and Wu Tongju have handled in the past two years", Feng Chenhao commanded in a big way.

"This ...... My lord, do you want to? Song Dian's bold question.

"These two adults are so busy that they can't even spare a little time to see the officials when they come, obviously they have a lot of official business, and even so, they must be rewarded. Look at what these two people are doing, so you can be rewarded for your deeds, isn't it? ”

The subtext of officialdom, whether to listen to it right or backwards, these old fritters naturally understand.

It's just that they didn't expect that this newly appointed official master did not have the consciousness of a strong dragon not to suppress the head snake at all, and he would have to carry it hard when he came up.

"I'll give you half a day to prepare, and I'll check it tomorrow", Feng Chenhao finished speaking, turned around and went out.

Song Dian's officials and other officials and officials in the workshop looked at each other: "What does he want to do?" ”

"I don't know what he wants to do, I just know what I'm supposed to do," said his colleague Kang Zheng.

"Kang Zhen, do you want to die?" An old official glanced at Kang Zhuo, and his eyes were full of disagreement: "How many days can Lord Feng stay?" How many more days will Lord Wu and Lord Hou stay? You can think about it."

"Hmph, you are just too timid, the lower officials have been in this government for decades, and they have been pressed by others, is it difficult for you? Our poor children, there is no way, we can't hold the thighs of the family, do we have to keep doing this? Liu Zhixian was demoted, and Lord Wu and Lord Hou still want to give the Xinzhi County Lord a dismissal, don't you think it's stupid? Kang Zhen said.

"You have lived all these years, and you still can't see it? The Northland is about to change! At this time, Lord Wu and Lord Hou should take some gifts to the prefect's mansion to serve softly, bow their heads, and this matter will pass. If we are smart, we should know how to do it. ”

In the Wu mansion, Wu Futian and Hou Jinning were notified by the errand servants, and after knowing that Feng Chenhao had gone to the yamen to fight around and leave, they got up and went to the yamen.

After the other two guards and the chief bookkeeper got the news, they also came to the yamen from their homes.

One of them, Gan Chaoying, said to Wu Futian with some embarrassment: "Lord Wu, Lord Feng is not good, let's hide like this, why don't we go and see him in the afternoon?" ”

"He wants to do us? Then we have to find a handle! That being the case, tomorrow will be in the government to welcome this Lord Feng to take office", Wu Futian frowned.

"The surname Feng can't move, the little girl who came with her, what is Luo Xiaoqiao's, has been jumping in the fields recently, digging the fields of several families in a mess, and saying that he wants to lead some canals to facilitate irrigation later", Li Jian'an, another chief bookkeeper, came out and said.

"Aqueducts? The embankment of the "mixed river" was built by the government government, and where the aqueduct came from was decided by the government government. If Cao Lao of the Ministry of Industry does not give advice, who dares to move the canal? Who will bear the responsibility for the accident? Hou Jinning said slowly.

"That's that, you can't pinch the Feng family, it's okay to be disgusting and disgusting, let that little girl cry and get out of Spring City!" Li Jian'an said with a cruel smile.
